Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or distance:
“Laid out for death, let thy last kindness be
With leaves and moss-work for to cover me:
And while the wood-nymphs my cold corpse inter,
Sing thou my dirge, sweet-warbling chorister!
For epitaph, in foliage, next write this:
Here, here the tomb of Robin Herrick is.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
“The distance that the dead have gone
Does not at first appear—
Their coming back seems possible
For many an ardent year.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
